The emergence of the Leyte coin

1. Lightcoin, foreign name is litecoin, referred to as LTC. In fact, this is another kind of virtual digital currency after the emergence of bitcoin. Lightcoin is a kind of "peer-to-peer" internet currency, which can help users pay to anyone in the world

in technology, lightcoin has almost the same implementation principle as bitcoin. It is based on an open source encryption protocol in the process of creation and transfer. Like bitcoin, lightcoin is also not managed by the central authorities

as we all know, bitcoin is proced through mining machine. The Leyte coin is also proced by "mining". In the whole mining process of Leyte coin, the computer graphics card will carry out the relevant hash operation. When our "miner" calculates the "burst value", you can get 50 Leyte coins. However, with the continuous growth of the computing power of Wright coin, it is not possible to use a few "mining machines" to dig Wright coin. Therefore, it can only be added to the "ore pool", so that all the calculation power can be collected, and the "ore burst value" can be calculated more easily

the expected total number of online currencies for lightcoin is 84 million, which is four times the amount of online currencies issued by bitcoin. We can use Leyte currency to exchange legal currency and bitcoin. In general, it is through online trading platform. Since the transaction of Leyte coin is irreversible, the revocable transaction cannot be carried out, because it will bring the risk of refund.

According to the domestic bitcoin, lightcoin trading platform bitcoin China and fire coin network quotation: at present, the price of lightcoin is about 58 yuan

recently, e to the FBI auction of bitcoin and the rumor that the Bank of communications will thoroughly investigate the account number of bitcoin trading platform and the impact of bitcoin core developers' outcry for stagnation in the development of bitcoin basic protocol, the prices of bitcoin and lightcoin have dropped. Among them, the price of lightcoin has not been affected by the rising price of bitcoin. The price is moderate and keeps growing slowly. When the price of bitcoin falls, lightcoin still falls

extended data:

design purpose

based on bitcoin protocol, but different from bitcoin, even at the present stage, it can efficiently "mine" through consumer hardware. Liteoin provides you with faster transaction confirmation (2.5 minutes on average). It uses hard memory and mining workload proof algorithm based on scrypt (an encryption algorithm). It is oriented to ordinary computer and graphics processor (GPU) used by most people. The litecain network is expected to proce 84 million currency units

one of the design purposes of litecoin is to provide a mining algorithm, which can be run simultaneously on the bitcoin mining machine. With the rise of application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) designed for bitcoin mining, litecoin is also closely following the technological evolution. But before the widespread use of litecoin currency, it is unlikely that there will be an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) specially designed for litecoin

bitcoin is an e-money payment system based on the global network
bitcoin is an e-money system based on the global decentralized network system, without the participation of central banks and third-party institutions, with a fixed total amount. Bitcoin has the characteristics of payment system and currency at the same time. Global network nodes are maintaining the bitcoin network all day<

English: bitcoin currency symbol: abbreviation: BTC or XBT

Introction to bitcoin by wiki
different from traditional currency, bitcoin's operation mechanism does not rely on the support or credit guarantee of central bank, government and enterprise, but on the network agreement reached with seed files in the network, which is a decentralized and self-improvement monetary system, Theoretically, it ensures that no one, institution or government can control the total amount of bitcoin or create inflation. Its total amount of money graally increased at the designed rate, and the increase rate graally slowed down, and finally reached the limit of 21 million in 2140<

Introction to bitcoin in network
bitcoin is based on a set of cipher codes and generated by complex algorithms. This rule is not interfered by any indivial or organization and is decentralized; Anyone can download and run the bitcoin client to participate in the proction of bitcoin; Bitcoin uses electronic signature to realize circulation, and checks repeated consumption through P2P distributed network. The generation and consumption of each bitcoin will be recorded through the P2P distributed network and informed to the whole network. There is no possibility of forgery. Bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions to issue, it is generated through a large number of calculations of specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction<

the difference between bitcoin and bitcoin
it should be noted that

in English, the words bitcoin and bitcoin represent two concepts of payment network and monetary unit

bitcoin starting with capital B represents bitcoin network system or bitcoin network protocol, which is a payment system based on decentralized network

you can simply understand bitcoin as a public accounting system built on the Internet and not manipulated by any third party. Bitcoin, which starts with lowercase B, refers to the digital currency (e-money, e-cash, cryptocurrency) built on bitcoin network. Bitcoin is the payment accounting unit built in bitcoin payment system. We call bitcoin the network system that proces bitcoin<

in Chinese, bitcoin and bitcoin are both called bitcoin without distinction in many places

its main features are as follows:
1. Decentralization

bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, and the whole network is composed of users without a central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom< Bitcoin can be managed on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where you are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or collect bitcoin

3. Exclusive ownership

private key is required to control bitcoin, which can be stored in any storage medium in isolation. No one can get it except the user himself

4. Low transaction cost

bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but in the end, a small transaction fee will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster transaction execution

5. No hidden cost

as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin has no cumbersome limit of quota and proceres. If you know the other party's bitcoin address, you can pay<

6. Bitcoin is not completely anonymous

it will take some time to protect privacy when using bitcoin. All bitcoin transactions are publicly and permanently stored in the network, which means that anyone can view the balance and transaction records in any bitcoin address. Unless the bitcoin holder discloses personal information ring the transaction, the bitcoin address will not be associated with the real identity of the bitcoin holder. This is why it is recommended that bitcoin holders use multiple bitcoin addresses; In fact, you should create a new address each time to receive bitcoin. This is especially important when using bitcoin in public places, such as on websites. In addition, you can also consider using tools like tor to hide your IP address from being recorded.

7. Bitcoin is still experimental

bitcoin is an experimental new currency in active development. Although its experimentality is diminishing with its increasing usage, remember that bitcoin is a new invention, exploring ideas that have never been tried before, so no one can predict the future of bitcoin.

4. Lightcoin has just made some changes to bitcoin, which is basically the same as bitcoin. Some people like these changes, and others pursue them
digital currencies are traded on exchanges, such as coin an, fire coin and bitbuffer.

5. Lightcoin is a kind of network virtual currency based on PTP technology, which is second only to bitcoin in the global circulation market value. Inspired by bitcoin, the creation and transfer of lightcoin is based on an open source encryption protocol, which is not managed by any central authority
each litecain is divided into 100000000 smaller units, defined by eight decimal places. Lightcoin needs to be generated by "miner mining". Mining is done by hashing through computer graphics card. If the value of "mine explosion" is calculated, the system will reward 50 lightcoin at one time. At present, the computing power of Leyte coin is growing rapidly. The miners can't find the mine through several computers, so they need to join the mine pool. The mine pool gathers all the computing power of everyone, so the probability of finding the mine is greater
e to the popularity of bitcoin and lightcoin, many units, institutions or indivials proce money by imitating their principles in an endless stream. In order to regulate the operation of digital currencies such as lightcoin, the relevant departments of the state specially authorize and support the development of a series of training courses on digital assets and business value-added points, so that students can analyze objectively and invest rationally.

6. Bitcoin mine pool is a team mining server. Bitcoin generates a block every 10 minutes, and there will be tens of millions of people competing. In the end, only one person owns the block, and no one else receives anything. You may have to dig for five years to get a block
team mining means that once anyone in the team gets a block, the currency in the block will be distributed to everyone according to their performance, so that everyone can get bitcoin quickly. The same is true of the distance from the Leyte mine

if you have large-scale computing power, you can build your own mine pool. If you don't have it, you are advised to give up.

7. Litecoin is a kind of network currency based on "peer-to-peer" technology, which can help users pay to anyone in the world immediately
at present, lightcoin is the second virtual currency after bitcoin in global circulation market value. The legends of bitcoin, Wright silver, infinite copper and pennies aluminum (Internet) are popular in the circle
the popular digital currencies in 2013 include bitcoin, Leyte coin, zeta coin, pennies (Internet), invisible gold bar, red coin, pole coin, barbecue coin and prime currency. At present, hundreds of digital currencies are issued all over the world
litecoin is inspired by bitcoin (BTC) and has the same implementation principle in technology. The creation and transfer of litecoin is based on an open source encryption protocol and is not managed by any central authority. Litecoin aims to improve bitcoin. Compared with bitcoin, litecoin has three significant differences. First, the liteoin network can process a block every 2.5 minutes (instead of 10 minutes), so it can provide faster transaction confirmation. Second, the output of litecoin network is expected to be 84 million litecoin, which is four times the amount of currency issued by bitcoin network. Thirdly, in its workload proof algorithm, litecoin uses the scrypt encryption algorithm first proposed by Colin Percival, which makes it easier to mine litecoin on ordinary computers than bitcoin. Each litecain is divided into 100000000 smaller units, defined by eight decimal places
lightcoin is generated by "miner's mining". Mining is done by hashing with computer graphics card. If the value of "mine explosion" is calculated, the system will reward 50 lightcoin at one time. At present, the computing power of lightcoin is growing rapidly, and miner can't dig mine through several computers. Therefore, it is necessary to join the mine pool, which collects all the computing power, It is estimated that the probability of calculating the "blasting" value is higher
at present, the well-known ore pools abroad include wemineltc, coinotron, etc

8. On October 7, 2011, a network organization announced the release of a new P2P virtual currency, called lightcoin (LTC)

litecoin is short for LTC, and its English name is litecoin. Litecoin stands for lightweight. The meaning behind litecoin is lightweight currency
1. Bitcoin generates a block every 10 minutes, while lightcoin LTC generates a block every 2.5 minutes. This means that lightcoin has faster transaction confirmation efficiency. Bitcoin transfer sometimes takes 1 hour or even longer to arrive at the account, but lightcoin generally takes less than 20 minutes to confirm

2. Since the LTC speed of lightcoin is four times that of bitcoin, and the reward of each block is the same as bitcoin, the total amount of money is four times that of bitcoin, which is 84 million lightcoins, which is higher than that of bitcoin<

3. Bitcoin adopts sha256 encryption algorithm, and lightcoin adopts script encryption algorithm. Compared with bitcoin, lightcoin LTC has a slightly lower computational load, which makes it easier to mine and more suitable for graphics card
(GPU) operation. At the same time, FPGA (field programmable gate array) and ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) implemented for script are better than sha256 used for bitcoin, More expensive.

Bitcoin is a kind of electronic currency / network virtual currency

bitcoin: also known as "bitcoin", is a kind of network virtual currency. Internet users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual goods, such as clothes, hats, equipment, etc. in online games. Internet users can also use bitcoin to buy real goods

on February 26, 2014, Joe Manchin, a Democratic senator from West Virginia, issued an open letter to a number of regulatory authorities of the US federal government, hoping that the relevant authorities would pay attention to the status quo of bitcoin's encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and demanded that actions be taken as soon as possible to completely ban the electronic currency

from 12:00 noon on January 24, 2017, China's three major bitcoin platforms officially began to collect transaction fees

extended data:

currency features:

1, decentralization: bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, the whole network is composed of users, and there is no central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom

2, global circulation: bitcoin can be managed on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where you are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or collect bitcoin

3, exclusive ownership: private key is needed to control bitcoin, which can be stored in any storage medium in isolation. No one can get it except the user himself

4, low transaction cost: bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but a transaction fee of about 1 bitfen will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster transaction execution

5, no hidden cost: as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin has no cumbersome limit of quota and proceres. If you know the other party's bitcoin address, you can pay

6, cross platform Mining: users can explore the computing power of different hardware on many platforms

advantages of bitcoin:

1, it is completely decentralized, without issuing institutions, it is impossible to manipulate the number of issues. Its distribution and circulation are realized through open-source P2P algorithm

2, anonymity, tax exemption and supervision free

3, robustness. Bitcoin is completely dependent on P2P network and has no distribution center, so it cannot be shut down externally. Bitcoin price may fluctuate and collapse, and many governments may declare it illegal, but bitcoin and its huge P2P network will not disappear

4, borderless and cross-border. Cross border remittance will go through layers of exchange control agencies, and the transaction records will be recorded by many parties. But if you trade with bitcoin, enter the digital address directly, click the mouse and wait for the P2P network to confirm the transaction, a lot of money will pass. It does not go through any regulatory agencies and will not leave any cross-border transaction records

5, Shanzhai people are difficult to survive. Because bitcoin algorithm is completely open source, anyone can download the source code, modify some parameters, recompile, and create a new P2P currency

but these counterfeit currencies are very fragile and vulnerable to 51% attacks. Any indivial or organization, as long as it controls 51% of the computing power of a P2P currency network, can manipulate transactions and currency value at will, which will be a devastating blow to P2P currency

many counterfeit coins die in this link. The bitcoin network is robust enough. If you want to control 51% of the computing power of the bitcoin network, the number of CPUs / GPUs required will be astronomical

the weakness of bitcoin

1, the fragility of trading platform. The bitcoin network is robust, but the bitcoin trading platform is fragile. Trading platform is usually a website, which will be attacked by hackers or shut down by competent authorities

2, the transaction confirmation time is long. When bitcoin wallet is first installed, it will consume a lot of time to download historical transaction data blocks. While bitcoin transaction, in order to confirm the accuracy of data, it will take some time to interact with P2P network, and the transaction will be completed only after the whole network is confirmed

3, the price fluctuates greatly. Due to the intervention of a large number of speculators, the price of bitcoin for cash fluctuates like a roller coaster. Making bitcoin more suitable for speculation rather than anonymous trading

4, the public did not understand the principle, and the traditional financial practitioners resisted. Active netizens understand the principle of P2P network and know that bitcoin has no legal person to manipulate and control

but the public doesn't understand, and many people can't even distinguish between bitcoin and q-coin“ "No issuer" is the advantage of bitcoin, but in the view of traditional financial practitioners, "no issuer" currency is worthless
